The History of the Chidren of Isreal returing from Babylon

The most well known statements of the Lord Jesus is recorded in John 3.16. God gave his son that whoever believes in him would not perish but have eternal life. When Jesus prayed to the Father the night he was betrayed, he defined what eternal life is: "that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent." As glorious as it is to know life on the other side of the grave, in large measure, eternal life is knowng the Lord in the now. Is it really possible to have that experience?

Come with the Grace United crew as we discover how we can know the Lord in the now.

Harlot Babylon, Seven Seals, Bowls, and Trumpets. Christ secures the Blessings of a better covenant.

To protect his people from a similar fate, he offers us eternal life in his son Jesus. So we must reject the way of the Pharisees, and humbly abide in him!
